How to Wear Boot Knives
- 1). Put on your boots. Make sure the boot for your knife is slightly looser than your other boot; the boot for your knife is the boot corresponding to your dominant hand. You should be able to fit two fingers into the ankle of the boot.
- 2). Slip the entire blade of the knife into its sheath so that no exposed sharp edges may nick your ankle. Secure any snaps and straps that the sheath may have around the blade.
- 3). Pull the slide clip on the front of your sheath out from the sheath slightly, and slide the sheath inside your boot so that the clip slips over the outside of the boot. Wiggle the sheath to make sure it is secure; lift your ankle and wave your foot from side to side to check if the knife stays put--if it doesn't, tighten your boot laces slightly.
